best hand soap for grease?

what do the rest of you grease jockeys use? we have been using lava bar soap simply because it is cheap but i would like to get something better for a still reasonable price. i thought gojo worked pretty well, but it is fairly expensive for what you get in terms of longevity. i may just bite the bullet and get it anyway.

Re: best hand soap for grease?

I use Gojo, but I'm not a grease monkey. Side benefit: makes a great laundry pre-treater for oily stains. I just squirt some on the stain and throw it in the hamper, wash with rest of the clothes. Haven't had a greasy stain yet that it didn't get out.....I feel like I should be wearing an apron for saying that, but I'll leave it.

Re: best hand soap for grease?

I keep a gallon jug of fast orange with a hand pump in my garage at all times. I typically start with that, then follow up with a brush and regular dishwashing soap. Typically works well, although I know Goop works well too...just dislike the nasty petroleum smell of that stuff....

Soak it in cider. ( am I going to get banned now?)

Re: best hand soap for grease?

K-Gard is awesome, but it's pricey. Cuts grease well and has moisturizer in it so it doesn't tear up your hands quite as badly as Gojo or Fast Orange. It's what we used when I worked at a Coop for a year and a half during college.
